1978 MG MGB

MG MGB (1978)
for sale

Price: US $8,000.00

Description:

* ***NO RESERVE* ***
This MGB is a steal! She has been my baby since flight school and I have been restoring her for the last eleven years but sadly can no longer afford to keep her. I have elected to set the starting price low and forego a reserve price because I simply don’t have time/money to keep relisting. Happy bidding!
